Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Aug. 27, 1907.

Application filed June 18,1906. Serial No. 322,281.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HARLEY CLARE ELLSWORTH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Salem, in the county of Oolumbiana and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Adjustable Buggy- Seats, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to buggy seats and more particularly to an adjustable childs buggy seat,-the object being to provide a seat which can be readily adjusted to fit the box oi": any buggy.

Another object of my invention is to provide a seat which can be readily detached and folded up when not in use.

With these objects in view, the invention consists in the novel features, of construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described and pointed out in the claims.

In the drawings forming a part of this specification Figure 1 is a perspective view of a buggy box showing my improved seat in place. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the seat and box. Fig. 3 is a section taken. on lines 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a top perspective view of one of the plates. Fig.4 is an inverted perspective view of the same partly broken away. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the bracket. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the supporting block. Fig. 7 is a detail perspective view of the seat proper.

In the drawing A indicates a pair oi wedge-shaped blocks having a grooved lower edge A, adapted to fit over the edge of the buggy box B. Secured to the inside of these blocks by bolts, are brackets 0 provided with spaced apertured arms C, which are pivotally connected to the spaced apertured ears D, of

the plates D by bolts. The plates are provided with slotted tongues D and an upwardly projecting lug D adapted to fit in a groove E, formed in each end of From theforegoing description it will be readily seen I that I have provided a very novel seat which can be readily adjusted to the box oi": the buggy, and one which can be detached and folded up into a very small space.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1-" 1. In a seat, of the kind described, the combination with a board having grooved under sides, of plates provided with lugs working in said grooves, means for connecting said plates to said board, brackets pivotally connected to said plates and blocks carried by said plates adapted to rest on the edge of the buggvbox, for the purpose described.

2. The combination with a seat having a groove at each end, of plates each provided with a lug working in said grooves adjustably connected to said seat, brackets hinged to said plates and blocks provided with grooved lower edges secured to said brackets for the purpose described.

In a seat of the kind described, the combination with a seat having a groove at each end, of bolts secured to said seat, plates provided with slotted tongues mounted on said bolts, ears formed on said plates, brackets pivoted to said ears and supporting blocks carried by said brackets, for the purpose described.

4. In a seat of the kind described, the combination with a seat having grooves formed on its under side at each end, plates provided with lugs working in said grooves, slotted tongues projecting out from said plates, bolts carried by the seat working in said tongues, cars formed on the underside of the plates, brackets pivoted tosaid ears and supporting blocks provided with a grooved edge secured to said brackets, for the purpose described.
